First published in 1865, Lewis Carroll’s endearing tales of an imaginative child’s dream world are written with charming simplicity.
While delighting children with a heroine who represents their own thoughts and feelings about growing up, the tale is appreciated by adults as a gentle satire on education, politics, literature, and Victorian life in general.
All the delightful and bizarre inhabitants of Wonderland are here: the White Rabbit and the Cheshire Cat, the hooka-smoking Caterpillar and the Mad Hatter, the March Hare and the Ugly Duchess…and, of course, Alice herself—growing alternately taller and smaller, attending demented tea parties and eccentric croquet games and observing everything with clarity and rational amazement.
These novels are part of Brilliance Audio’s extensive classic collection, bringing you timeless masterpieces that you and your family are sure to love.

"I didn't really know what to expect going into is one, but I loved the nonsensical, dreamlike story. I didn't read a whole lot into it, so I look forward to watching the Coursera lectures to see what I missed and moving on to Through the Looking Glass. I also enjoyed Carroll's straight forward prose, which I didn't expect from an 1860's novel, but legal reading has probably jaded me."
